Some Luck by Jane Smiley
I really enjoy this book and I think this is my second or third time reading it. Some Luck follows the Langdon family, who start off as farmers in Iowa.

Joan Holub’s This Little addition with Pride leaders is good but feels a bit advanced for the board book reader. And Pride 1 2 3 has been done before, so it feels like the subject is being … [Read more]
